Beatty This Past Week And Moving Forward

I just found this link on ESPN. It's under the NFC East blog and was pretty eyeopening about Beatty this past weekend. It was mostly positive about him and went pretty in depth. It's encouraging since Beatty was not very good last year and I had my doubts about him. But if he plays like this last weekend against Trent Cole then I think he can bulid off that and perform well the rest of the season.

Read it already. If anyone has watched Beatty close this year he's played very well and is one of the more reliable o-line men. He hasn't drawn any penalties (maybe 1 if that?) and has had to guard some pro-bowl caliber d ends. If he remains healthy, he should remain on the field for us for every offensive play.

Agreed......he's a solid tackle and that eye injury was very freakish/random. He's rebounded well. Hopefully he can stay healthy because that seems to be the O-Lines biggest issue....hell their best Tackle in recent memory was Shawn Andrews.......guy was a wall but just couldn't stay healthy.

The problem with Gilbride's pass-happy approach is that it doesn't do anything to slow down guys like Cole and Babin. These lineman want to go on the attack every once in a while with some run-blocking.
